There were many adventures on the drive back from Grove to Tulsa, including a stop for a snowball fight, led by Nanook of the North, Canadian Dave Mercer. He actually likes this weather. But Steve Bowman guided Mercer, Jim Sexton and me safely to our hotel, finally.
On the way back, Classic competitor Jason Quinn passed us at one point with his boat in tow. It was 9:30, and Quinn had concluded a very short practice day on Grand Lake.
"I'm from South Carolina," said Quinn. "I ain't used to this stuff."

The red marker is Tulsa, Okla. All of the blue is snow, covering everything around Tulsa for a minimum of 150 miles, including Grove, Okla., and Grand Lake.
